UNC Grad
An herpetologist (snake expert) brought several snakes to
show a zoo in Chapel Hill. A girl went up to him after the
class to ask more about the snakes. She wanted to know
if he had ever been bitten by a poisonous snake.
He said "Yep, several times. Most recently a rattler bit me
right here", and he showed the scar on his arm where the
snake had sunk it's fangs.
She looked at the man in awe and asked, "And you lived!?"
He looked at her, surprised, then grinned and said "You're
a UNC* student, aren't you?"

In Earlier Times:
Q: Why do UNC grads like to drive BMWs?
A: Because they can spell it.
I went to buy some camouflage trousers
the other day but I couldn't find any.

(Howdy - Not At Work)
A jumper cable walks into a bar. The bartender
says, "I'll serve you, but don't start anything."
"I had the toughest time of my life. First, I got angina pectoris
and then arteriosclerosis. Just as I was recovering fromthese,
I got tuberculosis, double pneumonia and phthisis. Then they
gave me hypodermics. Appendicitis was followed by tonsillectomy.
These gaveway to aphasia and hypertrophic cirrhosis. I completely
lost my memory for a while. I know I had diabetes and acute
ingestion, besides gastritis, rheumatism, lumbago and neuritis.
I don't know how I pulled through it.... It was the hardest spelling
test I've ever had."
Attention U.S. Senate
Islam sees itself in a state of war with Western civilization,
which was shaped by the Judeo-Christian tradition.
The incompatibility of this worldview led Harvard professor Samuel
Huntington, in his 1990s book The Clash of Civilizations, to predict that
the clash between Islam and the West would be the great struggle of the
twenty-first century. He is a prophet.
The question is, as with all prophets: Will we listen? Will we acknowledge
that we are in the midst of a life-and-death struggle between two hostile
worldviews? To listen to America’s politicians say we have to bring the
troops home, three years is long enough to fight, is tragically comical.
